Who benefits from the Hospital?
The design started with the selection of a Shield

Represents strength, protection, and safety .

The shield is used in academia to represent
the academic legacy
Is represented by a shield symbolizing the strength of our name, also
symbolizing our strive to providing services in a safe environment.

Being open represents our endless passion towards our vision.

And to represent our mission we reflected our

services with three shields that complete and

complement each other

• Patient Care – outer shield
• Education – middle shield
• Research – inner shield
 Saudi Arabia’s emblem is reflected by a palm tree symbolizing
generosity and growth.

An abstract design of a palm tree was selected

with six branches reflecting our values.
